True to his nature, Jarome Iginla continued his second half scoring with his 21st of the year, the game-winner against Phoenix, giving him 36 points in the past 39 games.  Always has, and always will be a second half performer. Cam Ward is 2-0 in his last 2 matches against New York State teams as the Hurricanes beat the Sabres 4-2 last night. Those who were patient to hold onto while he was injured just may pay off in the stretch run as he should be well-rested to give the Canes a shot at a playoff spot. He seems to have wrested the starting job back from Anton Khudobin, who was very impressive while holding down the crease until Ward's return.  Alex Semin chipped in with a goal and an assist giving him 9 points in 8 games since the O-break. Semin is a dynamic scorer but has been known to be a bit injury-plagued.  Ride him while he's hot! Patrick Marleau was the Shark with bite as he potted 2 goals in the shootout win over Columbus last night. With those two goals, Marleau now has 9 points in 8 games since the O-break.  He may never get back to his 80-point days, but is a consistent 30-30 player who contributes on the power play. It was a hot one in Florida last night as Ben Bishop and the Tampa Bay Lightning held on to win 5-4. Bishop has been struggling of late but managed to win his 30th on the season. In his last 9 outings, he has gone 3-5-2 while giving up 33 regulation goals in those 9 those games perhaps showing signs of wearing down due to playing the most games of his short NHL career. Bit note for fantasy fans; Steven Stamkos scored the eventual game-winner on the power play and also added an assist. This could get the superstar going. The St. Louis Blues continue their trek to the President's Trophy as they manhandled the Edmonton Oilers 6-2. The Oil kept it a close game for a while until the Blues erupted for 4 third period goals giving Ryan Miller his 5th win against 1 loss as a member of the Notes. Those holding onto to Miller or who traded for him prior to his trade from Buffalo are starting to reap the rewards.   Jaden Schwartz had 2 goals in that 3rd period barrage, and has quietly amassed a 21-29-50 point season in 64 games. Schwartz should be a mainstay on the Blues offense for years to come.  T. J. Oshie had a goal and 2 assists giving him 53 points in 66 games. Oshie is another Blues player who should be a mainstay on the offense for the next few years. The only problem with Head Coach Hitchcock's system is that the offense is spread out throughout the lineup so you are never going to get a superstar forward, so plugging them into your fantasy lineup is always going to be tricky. The NY Rangers lost a tough one last night in Minnesota, losing to the Wild 2-1. Martin St. Louis was held off the score sheet once again and has one lone assist in 5 games for the Blueshirts. Not the kind of production the Rangers were expecting.  His play is there, so keep the faith, he will snap out of it in short time.
